Bug Description
I think installer must have the ability of resizing an existing NTFS or FAT32
partition in the hard disk, in order to gain disk space to install Ubuntu. Many
many people wants to have Ubuntu installed together with Windows XP or Windows
98/Me, and 98% will need to resize his/her existing Windows partition.
I think pre-rc2 version of the "official" debian-installer has the ability of
resizing NTFS partitions (via ntfstools, AFAIK). Could the Ubuntu installer do
the same?
Thanks a lot.

We'll get this in Hoary, but the addition to Debian came too late for us to add
it to Warty.
